By the Segment Addition Postulate, SAP, we have
XY + YZ = XZ
so
YZ = XZ - XY = 5 cm - 2 cm = 3 cm
10.
M is the midpoint of XZ=5 cm so
XM = 5 cm / 2 = 2.5 cm
11.
XY + YM = XM
YM = XM - XY = 2.5 cm - 2 cm = 0.5 cm

The midpoint is just the average of the coordinate A(-3,2), B(5,-4)

Answer: M is (1,-1)
You'll have to plot it yourself.

For distances we calculate hypotenuses of a right triangle using the distnace formula or the Pythagorean Theorem.

Answer: AB=10
M is the midpoint of AB so
Answer: AM=MB=5

B is the midpoint of AC. We have A(-3,2), B(5,-4)
B = (A+C)/2
2B = A + C
C = 2B - A
C = ( 2(5) - -3, 2(-4) - 2 ) = (13, -10)
Check the midpoint of AC:
(A+C)/2 = ( (-3 + 13)/2, (2 + -10)/2 ) = (5, -4) = B, good
Answer: C is (13, -10)
Again I'll leave the plotting to you.
7(1 - 2x) = -x + 33
Distribute 7 inside the parentheses.
7 - 14x = -x + 33
Subtract 7 from both sides.
-14x = -x + 26
Add x to both sides.
-13x = 26
Divide both sides by -13.
x = -2
